Publisher's Summary

On the one hand, we have traditional science, based on the premises of materialism, reductionism, and randomness, with a belief that reality consists solely of matter and energy, that everything can be measured in the laboratory or observed by a telescope. If it can't, it doesn't exist. On the other hand, we have traditional religious dogma concerning God that fails to take into account evolution, a 4.6-billion-year-old Earth, and the conflicting claims of the world's religions. In The God Theory, Bernard Haisch discards both these worldviews and proposes a theory that provides purpose for our lives while at the same time being completely consistent with everything we have discovered about the universe and life on Earth. To wit, Newton was right - there is a God - and wrong - this is not merely a material world. Haisch proposes that science will explain God and God will explain science.

Though this work strikes a more philosophical note than a hard-line science approach, I felt that Haisch did an excellent job in offering a new perspective on God as he relates to science. There was a definite "narrowing of the gulf."

We cannot know who was the first human being to ask the ultimate questions: What is our place in the universe and why do we exist? Currently there are two seemingly irreconcilable ontologies that claim to provide answer these questions. A panoply of religions claim to provide metaphysical meaning to life. Traditional spiritual beliefs have been faith-based and essentially untestable, despite heroic efforts over the centuries to provide "proofs" for the existence of God. On the other hand, since the Age of Enlightenment, science has increasingly sought to explain everything through the workings of only physical processes. Only a few scientists are willing to express, as Stephen Weinberg, the ultimate consequences of denying any nonphysical aspects of being, "The more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it also seems pointless." A surprising number of scientists do continue to find ways, however, to be both scientists and believers and have put their viewpoints in writing. It might be easy to think that it's not possible to add anything new to a debate that has existed for centuries. Nevertheless, Bernard Haisch has proposed a fascinating and intriguing way to justify the existence of an intelligence behind the workings of the cosmos that he chose to call God. His arguments are presented through in the form of explorations of quantum mechanics and string theory in a way that they can be understood by a layperson. Although the "God" that is proposed is similar to the Judeo-Christian deity with which many of us are familiar, he is certainly not the bearded Jehovah painted on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, nor the one incarnated in the form of the Christian Jesus. I generally favor audiobooks in the range of 8 to 12 hours in length. I had downloaded this book because I found myself unexpectedly two weeks into the month and wanted something shorter than my usual selection. As it turned out, I found this book so interesting that I finished it in less than a week.

As a lifelong inquirer into religion, faith, and the existence/nature of God, this book appealed to me. What I found inside was an orderly exploration of The Question to which Douglas Adams insists the answer is 42. Haisch uses inquiries into the nature of light to reveal his theory on the nature of the divine. I learned a lot about theoretical physics fr listening, and the science seemed quite compelling. In particular I enjoyed his theory's application to the old Genesis saw, "Let there be light". Turns out that in our particular universe, light is required not only for things to be seen, but to even exist! Which totally blew my mind. I didn't agree with his views on biology and evolution, but he did put a disclaimer here that he is no expert in that area. In sum total, this book was enlightening but by no means a complete answer to The Question. Perhaps it was enough that it did offer a piece of the puzzle.

What a great listen! Haisch has written one of those rare books that despite which side of the debate you fall on, in listening to his thoughts you still learn and think. I’m going to have to buy the actual book so I can make margin notes as I read – something best not done while driving in the car.

Don’t read this book looking for an affirmation of intelligent design. You won’t find it. Neither will you like it if you are married to reductionism. However, Haisch does a masterful job of exposing close-minded reductionists for their blind faith in what they cannot see, measure, or in any way prove – their very criticisms of the close-minded Christians they so despise.

First, I really like this book but unless you understand quantum physics it is almost impossible to understand. I have a strong scientific background, but reading the book took approximately 40 hours of research to comprehend Haisch's theory.

In the final analysis The God Theory is a valiant attempt by a PhD astrophysist to resolve what many people view as a conflict between evolution and belief in a higher intelligence. In doing so he develops a concept of a "higher power/creator" that I find credible.

My issue with this book is that it could have been written using far less scientific jargon resulting in a more easily understood concept. The concept itself, which completely accepts evolution and explains the possible roles of a creator, appears credible to me.

If the reader hopes to find support for intelligent design as an alternate to evolution, he will be disappointed. If the reader expects to find support for any specific religious dogma, he will be disappointed. If the reader expects the book to deny the validity of the "big bang" theory, he will be disappointed On the other hand, an avowed atheist (likely the best definition of a closed mind) will likely hate the book because it presents a serious theory of intelligence being involved in formation of the universe and even providing "natural" laws that provide some guidance in 4+ billion years of evolution of life.

Many of us who believe the theory of evolution is valid recognize that the theory is a work in progress. There are numerous issues that are not yet close to being understood. For example, evolutionary biologists have many conflicting theories of how and when sexual reproduction began. There are dozens of similar gaps in our understanding. The probability of tplant and animal life being at its current state through chance alone after over more than 4 billion years is almost nil. But the probability of any other current outcome would also be near nil. All possible paths of the evolution of life by chance alone have a probability of near zero.

I recommend this book despite the complexity of the argument it presents. The theory it presents is a serious and credible one of intelligence seeking experience and creating a scenario to gain that experience.

the worst possible audiobook, i manage to find yet one more that goes just that much further. the author explains how his insecurities over the quantum theory uncertainties drove him to find solace in the uncertainties of a divinity he can neither see, hear or experience directly, but must exist if only to provide him an alternative to the quantum and string theories who's mathematics escape him. If only they hadn't found a narrator who's voice is reminiscent of Marshall Applewhite and thus made me long for Comet Hale-Bopp.
